Ed stood at the door way just in time as Clara left Bolt's arms. She had sensed him coming, her entire being was super sensitive about him.
Ed on the other hand stood frozen in place, his fangs piercing through his gums, he sealed his lips to keep them at bay. How was she doing that? He wondered. It was like a signal beckoning him to go and bite her again. He hadn't felt that way in years, he had never felt the need to renew the mate mark but right now, with her standing at a distance daring him to answer to her call. With stiff steps, Ed hesitantly walked forward but his feet felt as heavy as steel. He groaned in pain trying not to go towards her, if the makte mark weared off, he'd be able to do what was expected of him to protect her! He wasn't going to succumb to her call.
Why? Why are you aganist it?" Clara asked.
